This vulnerability has a CVSS 3.1 base score of 4.3, rated MEDIUM. It can be exploited remotely over the network. Some level of privileges is required for exploitation.

Technical description

MISP contains an authorization flaw in the OnDemand correlation engine where correlations were calculated solely from matching attribute values without applying the distribution, sharing group, organization, or other access-control restrictions associated with the correlated attributes and events. As a result, an authenticated user could receive correlation results referring to attributes or events that the user was not authorized to access.

The vulnerable correlation collection path did not take the requesting user into account. The patch changes the correlation collector to accept the current user and filters the resulting attribute identifiers through MISP's existing fetchAttributesSimple() authorization logic, which evaluates event-, attribute-, object-, distribution-, and sharing-group-level restrictions against the live data.

The issue also affected paths relying on previously stored correlation data. Because the OnDemand engine does not maintain the stored correlation tab

Remediation
